The awards function is a culmination of efforts that spanned almost six months. It all started with call for nominations on March 31. More than 600 nominations were received during the two-month window period. They were then screened and evaluated by BusinessLine along with knowledge partners, Deloitte and Ashoka. The short-listed nominations were then independently validated by Niiti Consulting - our validation partner.

Other jury members were R Gopalan, former Secretary, Department of Economic Affairs; Lakshmi Narayanan, Former Vice-Chairman, Cognizant; Pallavi S Shroff, Managing Partner, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas; Kaku Nakhate, President and Country Head - India, Bank of America; Padmaja Chunduru, MD & CEO, NSDL and Daisy Chittilapilly, President, Cisco India & SAARC. The jury met on August 3 in New Delhi and picked the winners.
